New Magazine

I found a new magazine at HEB this week: Quilts and More from Better Homes and Gardens Creative Collection, Spring 2007 Issue. I give it two thumbs up!!! It was packed full of awesome ideas! Here are a few of my favorite that I wanted to show you:


Who wants an apron next Christmas?

Save your old jeans for me -
I think I'd really like to do this one!

This one looked like something Jordann would like to make.

And this was an adorable baby quilt -
look how the circles are quilted
right into the white part!!!

omg... I love those aprons! I've been browsing eBay lately for vintage kitchen linens but haven't won any aprons that I really like. Jeans? That's a great item for buying at the thrift store 50% off days. The last day of the month at our store is even 80% off! And usually there are men's jeans with stains or tears that no one wants. I bought a stash of Levi's for Jo to make into purses. I think they were 60c each. I'll see if she has any to share. BTW, can I share Jo's crafty creations on the blog, too?

What's the purse made of?

My old jeans have to many holes for that.
